How Did You Get Started?

I was 15 years old when I began rowing. Of course some parts of training were in the gym, which is where I got hooked! After 3 years I quit rowing and continued training with weights. I entered my first competition when I was 20 and took 3rd place. I was very exited about it and decided to compete every year. My greatest accomplishment to date was placing 10th at the World Championship which was organized by NABBA/WFF.
